This is a letter my brother Andy sent to to the Editor of The Las Vegas Sun. He is a former social worker, very sensitive, spiritual. I thought I would share this with all my friends. It’s very heartwarming as well as true.

Letter to the Editor:

God bless Pope Francis! I’ve been following his passionate pursuit of humanitarian principles since his becoming Pope. I was especially moved by the “Other Voices” article published on December 21 by The Las Vegas Sun entitled “Pope is Showing Us the Right Way.” The piece authored by Darryl Lorenzo Wellington succinctly pointed out that Pope Francis sees how unrestrained greed has created a brutal inequality of wealth. He mentions that the Pope urges us to not only provide for the poor “but also to build a just economy.”

In reading this article it occurred to me as a Muslim that the principle social philosophy Catholic Pope Francis exhorts and the basic tenets that true Islam advocates (not the extremists, not the oil sheiks) are essentially the same. All religions are double-edged…like a rose with its thorns. No matter how well intended they may be it is the imperfections of humanity that distort their meanings and applications. Pope Francis has the wisdom and sensitivity to realize the toll global greed has imposed on the mass of humanity. When the helpless and impoverished lose all hope their last resort is to lash out at their abusers. If we are truly serious to want to achieve any semblance of world peace we must apply a new paradigm by casting aside our political and religious differences. To achieve this goal will require the moderates of the world of all faiths –to include agnostics and atheists – join ranks and work in unison. It may sound Pollyannaish but collaboration can and must be done to eradicate world hunger, provide health care and safety for all and, build a just economy. Pope Francis makes sense and is well intended. He is setting an example for us all.
